[Immediate and long-term results of endarterectomies in atherosclerotic occlusions of the abdominal aorta and iliac arteries].

An analysis of the clinical material evidences a sufficiently high efficiency of endarterectomy even in spread occlusions of the aorto-femoral segments of atherosclerotic etiology with the absence of atheromatosis and calcinosis of the arteries. Good and satisfactory immediate results were obtained in 89.4% of the patients, long-term results in 52.8% and with regard to reoperations--in 67.5% of the patients.
